James Watt improved the steam engine produced by Thomas Newcomen.
Thomas Newcomen conceptualised a design for a modern steam motor in the middle of the eighteenth century. It was designed to syphon water out of mines and was given the moniker "air steam motor" by the inventor. Scottish architect James Watt worked on the Newcomen steam engine throughout the 1760s.
